Matilda Lyrics by Peggy Sue

Fossils and Other Phantoms

2010

Oh Matilda, it was I who took the pill
That killed you
Oh sweet Matilda, I took that pill
And washed it down the water
And I hit the town that very night
Oh sweet Matilda, I was not ready
Was not ready for you
Oh sweet, sweet Matilda, I took that pill
And washed it down with water
It smelt so sweet but it made me sick
Are you lonely now?
Now you've swallowed me down
